Yes, I have a better idea. If due to economic restraints, I were forced to lay off part of my work force, it would be based on performance assesments and not on my employee's politics. The ability to produce results, increased sales for instance, would be more important to me and my bottom line, than what bumper sticker they displayed on their car.
Are you really in business?... or just a nattering na-bob? (Thx, S. Agnew)

I thought you were democrats which supports labor unions. The unions I've come across negotiate contracts where seniority is the standard. Meaning the laziest piece of crap employee can have one day longer on the job then the best most productive employee in the place. The lazy guy can bump the best guy off jobs he wants. Good guy gets layed off first,ect,ect. Nothing is based on performance. This takes away managements power to reward good employees and give the worst employees the worst jobs= motivation. Things like this had a large roll in the decline of the auto industry.

Looks like I just got bumped in the lack of a sense of humor department.
